Retaining walls can be used for a number of reasons, and they also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property. The size and placement of a retaining wall help regulate water flow throughout your outdoors area, making it more functional and enjoyable.
At B&D Rockeries, we provide tailored retaining walls to fit difficult, specific landscapes and outdoor areas. Our professional crew has experience with different building techniques to ensure we deliver strong, durable retaining walls every time. We offer our certified services in Sammamish, Seattle, Everett, and throughout Snohomish and King Counties.
Sammamish Rock Walls
Our Sammamish builders are familiar with all types of retaining walls, and they can customize them to fit any landscape. We have vast experience working with often-chosen non-cemented options, as well as cemented options.
Our most popular and beautiful rocks come from local quarries. We are well-connected with all local quarries, so we can provide all colors and sizes necessary to match your preference. Because we know all the local quarries, B&D Rockeries can provide the most beautiful retaining walls at the most competitive prices.
Quarry rocks are unique because they are a limited resource. In other words, once the quarry runs out, you will not be able to find rocks to replicate your wall. This means your retaining wall will be unique, like a priceless piece of art that cannot be mimicked.
Retaining Wall Sizes Available in Sammamish
Retaining walls come in all shapes and sizes, so you can find the perfect style and color to match your design. Here’s a glance at some of the benefits and qualities different rock sizes offer:
Half Man and One Man
Half man and one man rocks are perfect to build a small retaining wall. They are usually under four feet tall, and you will often see builders using half man and one man rocks as a foundation. Then, they build upper layers with smaller rocks to make up the final wall. Using one man and half man rocks will make the installation process more labor-intensive, which means these projects may be more expensive.
Two Man and Three Man
There are the most common types of rocks used in retaining walls. They are bigger than one man and half man rocks, so they are perfect for numerous kinds of walls. Two man and three man rocks require heavy machinery, and they are easier to maneuver than smaller rocks. Heavy machinery makes the manual labor easier, so these walls usually cost less than other types.
Boulders
Although boulders are not usually used for retaining walls, you still see them occasionally. They come in all shapes and sizes, so they make a perfect fit for certain projects.
At B&D Rockeries, we understand how different kinds of rocks fit together to form a wall. This is what makes our services so valuable. Retaining walls that are not properly installed will only last a few years before they fall apart. Our staff of professional builders is skilled at constructing sturdy retaining walls that will last for decades to come.
Sammamish Retaining Wall Placement
A retaining wall’s placement is usually the biggest factor in its success. Retaining walls are often built because they look great and because they help regulate water flow through your property. The landscape will define water flow, which will then dictate the placement of your retaining wall. Our team of experts can help you examine your property and decide the final location of your wall. We service homes and businesses throughout Snohomish and King Counties, including Sammamish, Seattle, Mukilteo, Everett, Mill Creek, and Bothell.
